Being a transliteration either spelling is equally correct.
However the 'zoftig' pronunciation is used more often.

Zoftig: literally, "juicy." Although it has come to mean fat, it is
really a compliment, meaning a buxom, lush, "juicy." Marilyn Monroe
and Anna Nicole Smith were zoftig. Audrey Hepburn and Callista
Flockhardt were/are decidedly NOT zoftig.

Sometimes Zoftik is written:
